Stop putting milk in your dark chocolate, and I'll start caring.

Yes, that's the intention when used properly. When abused, it's a "cover your ass" statement.

I challenge these manufacturers to provide actual data supporting their claims that these allergens can be found near their production lines, or in the factories producing their ingredients.

That lazy allergens list. Besides shellfish, the only allergens not in "may contain" are actually in the ingredients.

Make it true. Make an announcement saying we have ceded to his demands and have forbidden the banks from operating here.

The PM agrees with The Globe and Mail once and now they think they'll get two in a row?

I'm not sure I understand. Are these cookies and bars of soap 0.001% pure fentanyl?

If not, then it seems these warnings (and these products) are for drug traffickers, not the general public.

Could you edit your comment to include a homophone in your third sentence? For instance, substitute "no" with "know", or "way" with "weigh"?

I'll delete my comment afterwards. It's just that comedy often comes in threes.

Pro-Tip: Until they recently dropped the misleading product, "Unscented" Dove soap had perfume in it. Sensitive Skin Dove soap does not.

If you're considering changing pharmacies and even partially pay for your drugs, make sure to look up their dispensing fees. They can vary significantly between pharmacies and provinces, and at least in my town and province, Shoppers Drug Mart is one of the more costly ones.

Yes. According to my experience in my small corner of the world, around 2010, the cool people had iPhones, but when you wanted to do serious business, you still used a BlackBerry. Unfortunately, some easily-influenced executives often would prioritize looking cool and just let their I.T department figure out how they can get their work done, even though Apple had nothing that could compare to the BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES).

On top of that, most consumers and gullible executives didn't see the hidden benefits of BES, because with Research In Motion's (RIM) push to enter the consumer market, all the marketing material out at the time focused on the comparatively impotent consumer offering, BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS), instead.

Trying to survive in the narrow-margins of the consumer market killed RIM. In 2011, you would get teased for having a BlackBerry if you didn't know how to stand up for yourself and articulate how no other mobile device had the level of magic* making everything work in the back end.

* BES ran on a dozen JAVA services which required arcane magic to work.
